In the video, a female Blue jay I have known for 5 years, makes a few different alarm calls. The first one is a call I have only heard her make. I know about 20 blue jays and haven't witnessed the others making it, that isn't to say that they don't though. When she makes this call it can be for either hawks or crows.
The second call is of her imitating a Sharp-shinned hawk. They use this imitating of hawks to alert other jays and also sometimes to decieve others into thinking a hawk is around. In this case she was alerting her mate of a Sharp-shinned hawk that was near. The last call is just a regular jay alarm, again letting her mate know of the hawk.

Blue jay

The blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a passerinebird in the familyCorvidae, native to North America. It is resident through most of eastern and central United States and southern Canada, although western populations may be migratory. It breeds in both deciduous and coniferous forests, and is common near and in residential areas. It is predominantly blue with a white chest and underparts, and a blue crest. It has a black, U-shaped collar around its neck and a black border behind the crest. Genders are similar in size and plumage, and plumage does not vary throughout the year. Four subspecies of the blue jay are recognized.

The blue jay mainly feeds on nuts and seeds such as acorns, soft fruits, arthropods, and occasionally small vertebrates. It typically gleans food from trees, shrubs, and the ground, though it sometimes hawks insects from the air. Like squirrels, blue jays are known to hide nuts for later consumption. It builds an open cup nest in the branches of a tree, which both sexes participate in constructing. The clutch can contain two to seven eggs, which are blueish or light brown with brown spots. Young are altricial, and are brooded by the female for 8–12 days after hatching. They may remain with their parents for one to two months.

Alarm calling

Vocal communication conveys a wide variety of emotional states and intentions and often serves to affect the behaviors of those that hear the calls. At least 32 different chimpanzee vocalizations have been identified by humans. One of these calls is known as an alarm call, which chimps emit to signal danger to others in the group. According to Smithsonian magazine, "When chimps warn each other about impending danger, the noises they make are much more than the instinctive expression of fear—they’re intentionally produced, exclusively in the presence of other chimps, and cease when these other chimps are safe from danger." In this video, the chimps (Jackson and CJ are visible but the others can be heard) alert each other to the presence of a horse in a nearby pasture.

Sounds of a Ruffed Grouse Hen calling. This Hen with chicks was spotted along the roadside in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina at the extreme southern end of its North American range. The video shot at great distance is shaky, but the fascinating array of alarm, distress and distraction calls are very good - crank up the volume - best to listen with headphones! One who is not familiar with Ruffed Grouse would not guess these were bird calls from the same bird. Varying between the sound of a small dog barking, a cat meowing or an injured small animal such as a rabbit the Hen runs into the deep forest cover to protect her chicks who instinctively hunker down in the tall grass and will not move until she returns. All the while distracting any predator away from the chicks with her unusual vocalizations.

Vocal communication conveys a wide variety of emotional states and intentions and often serves to affect the behaviors of those that hear the calls. At least 32 different chimpanzee vocalizations have been identified by humans. One of these calls is known as an alarm call, which chimps emit to signal danger to others in the group. According to Smithsonian magazine, "When chimps warn each other about impending danger, the noises they make are much more than the instinctive expression of fear—they’re intentionally produced, exclusively in the presence of other chimps, and cease when these other chimps are safe from danger." In this video, the chimps (Jackson and CJ are visible but the others can be heard) alert each other to the presence of a horse in a nearby pasture.

Blue Jay Alarm Calls and Imitating a Sharp-shinned Hawk

In the video, a female Blue jay I have known for 5 years, makes a few different alarm calls. The first one is a call I have only heard her make. I know about 20 blue jays and haven't witnessed the others making it, that isn't to say that they don't though. When she makes this call it can be for either hawks or crows.
The second call is of her imitating a Sharp-shinned hawk. They use this imitating of hawks to alert other jays and also sometimes to decieve others into thinking a hawk is around. In this case she was alerting her mate of a Sharp-shinned hawk that was near. The last call is just a regular jay alarm, again letting her mate know of the hawk.

Ruffed Grouse Hen Alarm, Distress and Distraction Calls

Sounds of a Ruffed Grouse Hen calling. This Hen with chicks was spotted along the roadside in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina at the extreme southern end of its North American range. The video shot at great distance is shaky, but the fascinating array of alarm, distress and distraction calls are very good - crank up the volume - best to listen with headphones! One who is not familiar with Ruffed Grouse would not guess these were bird calls from the same bird. Varying between the sound of a small dog barking, a cat meowing or an injured small animal such as a rabbit the Hen runs into the deep forest cover to protect her chicks who instinctively hunker down in the tall grass and will not move until she returns. All the while distracting any predator away from the chicks with her unusual vocalizations.

Blue Jay Mobbing Alarm Calls

Caution - hearing hazard! Classic 100 Decibel Blue Jay group alarm mob calls for a hapless cat that dares tread into the Backyard jungle in daytime. 10 to 12 Blue Jays live near the Backyard in an extended family group and when the alarm goes off for a cat or hawk or snake they all converge into a mob and attempt to drive them off - or crazy - with their jeering mob calls.

Blue jay

The blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a passerinebird in the familyCorvidae, native to North America. It is resident through most of eastern and central United States and southern Canada, although western populations may be migratory. It breeds in both deciduous and coniferous forests, and is common near and in residential areas. It is predominantly blue with a white chest and underparts, and a blue crest. It has a black, U-shaped collar around its neck and a black border behind the crest. Genders are similar in size and plumage, and plumage does not vary throughout the year. Four subspecies of the blue jay are recognized.

The blue jay mainly feeds on nuts and seeds such as acorns, soft fruits, arthropods, and occasionally small vertebrates. It typically gleans food from trees, shrubs, and the ground, though it sometimes hawks insects from the air. Like squirrels, blue jays are known to hide nuts for later consumption. It builds an open cup nest in the branches of a tree, which both sexes participate in constructing. The clutch can contain two to seven eggs, which are blueish or light brown with brown spots. Young are altricial, and are brooded by the female for 8–12 days after hatching. They may remain with their parents for one to two months.
